Description
Günter and Regina Triebaumer helm a family winery in Rust, Burgenland, with a lineage tracing back to 1691. Their Blaufränkisch Reserve exemplifies the region's tradition of producing bold, age-worthy reds. This wine presents intense dark fruit aromas of blackberry and blackcurrant, accented by subtle black pepper. Aging in oak imparts nuanced smoky complexity, while the iron-rich soils contribute a distinct minerality. The result is a structured wine with firm tannins and a lingering finish, embodying Burgenland's rich winemaking heritage.
Günter and Regina's journey to winemaking was unconventional. Günter gained experience in South Africa and served as a store manager for Wine & Co, while Regina played a pivotal role in developing the Austrian Wine Academy and worked in international wine marketing. Their diverse experiences have shaped a modern approach that honors their family's longstanding traditions.
The Triebaumers prioritize sustainable viticulture, farming 25 hectares without herbicides or pesticides, and employing low-impact practices. This commitment to nature is evident in their wines, which authentically express the unique terroir of Rust.
Their Blaufränkisch Reserve stands as a testament to their dedication to quality and tradition.
